Description Amanda Falke 2023-06-15 15:21:56 PDT
Hyphenation does not work across renderers in WPE, so test fast/inline/hyphen-across-renderers.html has been failing in WPE since introduced in 264426@main.

Test runs fine locally on GTK and bots look ok for GTK and other ports as well, it seems WPE may be the only port with an issue here (speculatively).

does WPE have IFC enabled? Hyphen across renderers does not work with legacy line layout codepath.

Hi! Sorry for the delay in replying here; from my understanding, IFC is enabled in WPE, per https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/main/Source/WTF/Scripts/Preferences/UnifiedWebPreferences.yaml#L3235

Thanks for the clarification also that this is not expected to work with legacy line layout codepath; if you recommend changing the bug description in some way, happy to do so.
